Answer to some questions and more photos.

For those of you asking about Molly, her allergies are sort of under control. I have her on one half pill of Vanectyl-P twice a day and that sort of works. Any less and she scratches and chews like crazy. I have enough pills to last until the end of the month, and then I'll talk to the vet again.

Back on this post I mentioned we had a strange nasty smell coming from the top of the basement stairs. Pleased to say we have discovered the source of this smell, it was a dead mouse. Actually a dead stinking mouse.........dh has a light with a camera on the end of it, and it was behind some pipes. I had to use tongs to haul it out of there. So we are back to smelling pretty nice in the house again :0)

On Monday there was a lot of activity at the bird feeder. The chickadee's were out in force. We had six Blue Jays at the feeder at one time. There were some Dark-eyed Junco's and a couple of Northern Cardinals (both males) and even a Downy Woodpecker (a female). Sorry I only got the one photo of the Northern Cardinal.

I managed to get another block done for the second block of the month quilt I am making. This one is in creams and pinks. I was hoping to have a couple of different greens in my stash for the sashings.

"Away in a Manger," a classic Christmas Carol, I am not sure who is performing this, it may be "The Southwell Boys Choir"? They have such beautiful voices though don't they?

In answer to your Q we have a single storey roof under the bedroom window. The cats have worked out they can get on it & come in through the window. If its shut like last night they scratch on it. Needless to say I feel like their servant as they then need letting out of the bedroom !!!!

Ah, I can empathise. We let the cats out, we let them in, out, in. Oliver gets up in the attic by climbing on the wood pile in the garage. I know we have mice up there!They are pretty miffed with the 75 cm of snow, too!

Glad to hear you got the mouse out of there! I'm at work so I can't listen to the Christmas Carol, but I'll try to when I get home. But their collard though it looks like it might be Kings' College Boys' Choir.
